As I explained in my post about our Grade 6 Curriculum, I selected topics to touch on, on a weekly basis. Another one of these topics is Musical Instrument of the Week.
I created some display cards for selected musical instruments to pin onto our Notice Board, together with the other cards.
All I intended for this study, was for my son to develop some observation skills and to maybe learn to identify the sounds of some musical instruments. After listening to the sound of the instrument, I will let him listen to some movie soundtracks he likes to try to identify where the instrument is played. Youtube also has wonderful clips of excellent musicians, masters if you will, playing the instruments. I thought it a good exposure for my son.
